Redstone Minecarts and Slimeball Linking

Redstone Minecarts:

-Act as Improved Version of a Minecart with Furnace (ex : moves faster and cant be stopped by entites and needs more deactivated powered rails to stop)

-Have a "Battery" Charge System Where The Minecart can be Charged with a Repeater Running into the same rail the minecart is on, or having a comparator run out of the said rail to use the Charge level as a signal strength

-Control If it Stops or Goes Even if it charged using activator rails (ex: Deactivated Activator Rails Stop Redstone Minecarts, Powered Activator Rails would let the minecart pass or activate it)

Slimeball Linking:

-Linking Minecarts using Slimeballs

-Links Could Give Way If To Many are Coneccted

-Works On Any Minecart

    The ability to link minecarts together would definitely help make the Furnace Minecart more useful. Perhaps having an inventory for the furnace cart (Hopper fillable) in order to queue fuel would make it even more useful in railroad systems. A rail for locking linked trains via the engine (furnace cart) when a Redstone signal is applied would help with emptying and refilling the Furnace cart, as well as any other carts in the train.
